Advent in the life of the soul
The Church of St. solemnly prepares for the reception of Christ, just like the wise virgins who cleansed their lamps to welcome the Bridegroom. “Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately Continue reading

The Healing Power of Beauty!
Humans cannot be ugly because God created them, and all the works of God are wonderful. Everything you surround yourself with—what you look at, what you watch, or what you read—has an impact on your psyche. This is a fact that you cannot ignore in the fight against depression. To put it brutally:If you feed Continue reading

On the Love of Mary
…Someone contemplating the Crucifixion cried out in the end: “O Mary, how can you still love us!” – A strange and wondrous thing is this love for souls! Its paths are different, its order distinct, its manifestations unique. Mary was a victim of sin, yet she remains forever the “refuge of sinners.” She suffered more Continue reading

When reason and will are almost overcome
It may sometimes seem to you, my son, that your will is very weak, incapable of resisting sensual desires and other enemies striving to overpower it. Perhaps you feel you lack the courage and determination to withstand their pressure; yet, do not cease to resist steadfastly, do not abandon the battlefield. Know that you are Continue reading

“If one does not pray, he is either a devil or a beast” – St. Bishop J. Pelczar on prayer
Prayer is therefore an act of spiritual life, for all the faculties of the soul participate in it: memory, as it recalls God’s perfections, works, and gifts; reason, as it contemplates them; the heart, as it is moved by feelings; and the will, as it makes resolutions. Without God’s grace, we could not pray properly, Continue reading

Spiritual Combat – Two Human Wills
So that you may more easily, my son, surrender yourself to the will of God, and do everything for His glory, consider well that God first loved and honored us, and in manifold ways. He brought us out of nothingness and created us in His own image, and subjected all other creatures to our service. Continue reading

The Value of Our Deeds Before God – On Good and Evil Motives – St. Joseph Sebastian Pelczar III. How to Conduct Oneself Regarding the Motive Before an Action?** We have spoken thus far about motives in general; now we will apply this teaching to specific cases.

The Value of Our Deeds Before God – On Good and Evil Motives – St. Joseph Sebastian Pelczar
I. The Importance of Motives I have called a good motive and simplicity the window of the spiritual house. What is a motive? It is, as it were, the internal spring of action that prompts or influences a particular deed. For example, if I give alms to obtain God’s grace or, conversely, to gain human Continue reading

ON THE CATHOLIC UNDERSTANDING IN THE FIRST CENTURIES OF CHRISTIANITY(Lecture by Father Ventura)(Part 3)
Part Three 12. We will speak the honest truth, my brothers, maintaining that when philosophical reason in antiquity, as we have already seen, was never able to solve any problem, could not overcome any difficulty, nor establish any truth; then, Catholic reason, inspired by the light of God’s word, arrived at the resolution of all Continue reading
About Me
Let us build the Church in souls on the rock of our faith. God is Spirit and we should worship Him in spirit and truth. Now in the times of apostasy of the Catholic Church administration, when very often we do not have access to real priests, this is very important. It will allow us not only to survive, but also to strengthen our faith. The truth, even if it is hard for us, always comes from God. Let’s not live in a lie. The father of lies is Satan. Let us remember this. The truth is the determinant by which I am guided when I write for several years on the Polish website I founded http://www.niewolnikmaryi.com and it will be the same here – in the English version.
Ps. I encourage suggestions for the translation. It will help me a lot.
